I would now like to hand the conference over to Carmen Riley, CEO. Please go ahead.
Okay, great. Thanks, Harmony. Thanks everyone for joining the call today. I'm here with Brendon Pentland. For those who haven't met him yet, he's our new CFO, that's been on board for a couple of months. So, I'll go through the high level at the moment, and then I'll hand over to Brendon for the detail.
But just turning over you can see our underlying result is sitting at good sales at $1.9 billion our underlying EBITDA at $49 million which I think is a good solid result, net profit after tax at $13.3 million. So, on the statutory result, revenue remains the same. EBITDA is a loss of 4,000 and net loss after tax of $21.3 million.
